2024 CX-5 Select Front Passenger Airbag ??
My wife and I just bought a 2024 CX-5. I have not experienced this yet but my wife says sometimes when nobody is sitting in the front passenger seat the car dings and beeps telling the passenger to fasten their seatbelt. I know these newer cars are using electrostatic sensors instead of weight sensors. I asked when it happens if she has anything on the seat and she said just her purse. My guess is her purse holds a charge large enough to set of the sensor. I wanted to get the take of other CX-5 owners to see how common this is or should we take it in to have it looked at. Next time it happens I'll tell her to take her purse off of the seat if it's there.
Thanks BTW this is our first Mazda and so far it's been great. |
It happens sometimes to my car as well as my girlfriend's. It's usually the back middle seat in both of our CX-5s. It goes away on its own, but if it happens too often I would definitely take it to the dealer under warranty.

Same situation :-)
Bag on the back seats is the same, only on the floor or in the trunk Regards |
Wow, so it happens to the back seats as well. I'll tell her that too. Thanks

The sensor in the passenger seat is pretty sensitive. Even small items will trip it. A handful of letters headed to the P.O. will set it off.

Hi, I just got a 2024 CX5 as well, the basic trim. The panel in front, that shows the back and passenger seatbelt lights- should it also include the passenger airbag light? My car only shows the pilot's airbag light for a few seconds before turning off (after starting engine). When there is a copilot (passenger), there is no airbag light doing the same thing. I was wondering if my car is defective or if basic trims don't include this light (and only include the passenger seatbelt light). Thanks

I believe that the passenger airbag light is only in the guage cluster.
